the road to self improvement

the road to self improvement...

I've decided recently to take charge of everything thats bugging me in my life.

be it my messy room, or the few pounds i've been meaning to loose, or the skate tricks i've been meaning to learn, or bands i've wanted to interview.

I'm on a path to making my life better

I'm in the process of getting my room in order (i need more closet space. I seriously have enough clothing to cloth a third world nation. haha).. And in November I plan to do some renovations to it.. I'm going to add actual wallpaper (http://designerwallcoverings.com/WallpaperStore/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=384) & wood to the chair rail (right now it's just a paint on illusion)...and i'm going to tile the counter in my bathroom.

I've been working out, counting calories, and got rid of sweets from the diet. I'm almost exactly where I want to be weight wise..it's mainly my legs that have been bugging me..as i've always pretty much had a flat stomach.

I've been practicing skating a lot lately.. mostly street. but this weekend I just started back in the park, after about a year away from park skating. god i missed the vert ramps.. I'm skating in this big locals only skate competition next month.

I've been getting RSB back in order.. Slowly.. My photo gallery is almost completely fixed... I still need to send out more press queries for the fall. But tonight I'm photographing/interviewing The Ataris.

I guess my biggest problem with anything, has always been staying focused. Or on the right path... So i've decided i'm going to go get a tattoo today of a line from "The Path" by HIM, to always remind me to stay on my path... "I see through the darkness, my way back home, the journey seems endless but i'll cary on, the shadows will rise, and they will falls, and our night drowns in dawn"
